The fact is, success in DC is largely determined by what country you come from or play for in the first place, which most players haven't had any control over.

Kenny de Schepper fact of the month (February 2015): won all the ATP tournament matches he played against TOP10 players - note that he has a strictly positive record against them (credits to Federer-Fan).

"Matches are won and lost so many times in the locker room. Guys get in their mind how strong he is the warm-ups and that they will have to endure four hours of that to beat him: they are beaten even before they step on court. But that's why I like him. He basically says you are going to have to kill me to beat me."Lleyton Hewitt about Rafael Nadal

I replied to tell you that i don't care so you'll avoid posting this kind of stuff again

Really? You said nobody, which is only the same to say your personal opinion if you think that all the MTF users think like you.

You are not a mod or admin so saying me that "you'll avoid posting this kind of stuff again" makes me laught . For me it is funny, at least it is funnier than other pictures that I have seen here. I have no idea about your sense of humour but I don't mind.

No need to waste more time here
